The prototypes to date haven't supported this. You may have got lucky 
but you would probably have tripped over a number of asserts if running 
with -esa.

So yes, it's a hazard in the current prototype. If you are using a 
custom scheduler, the threads (or "carrier threads" as we've been 
calling them) must be kernel/heavyweight threads. There are several 
issues that will need to be worked through before it will be possible to 
multiplex virtual threads over a pool of virtual threads over a pool of 
...  Hopefully this won't prevent you from testing other things.
